Default This Week - 1941 - Tom Fogerty

On November 9 1941, Tom Fogerty, rhythm guitarist with "Creedence Clearwater Revival," was born in Berkeley, Calif. "CCR" had been together under various names since 1959, but didn't hit the big time until 1969 with their double-sided million-seller, "Proud Mary" and "Born on the Bayou." Creedence became the leading American singles' band on the strength of such hits as "Bad Moon Rising," "Green River" and "Travelin' Band." Tom Fogerty left "C.C.R." in 1971, and later recorded several solo albums. The group disbanded in 1972. Tom Fogerty died of respiratory failure on Sept. 6, 1990.
